I have heard from others that the Firebox gives better value for the money, however, one fallback is that the preamp isn't as good as the Apogee and the unit itself isn't specifically geared towards interfacing as easily with Logic Studio 9 as the Duet.
Firebox is good but the Preamps on the Duet are superb for recording vocals. It depends what you need and what you can afford. Get whats best for you and enjoy it. Dont get bogged down in gearlust. There are plenty of "pro" tracks out there that have been recorded on laptops with SM57s.
And what happened to the videos with the guy who opened the Duet, I hope someone can re upload it, the guy proved that the DUET was market hype by Apple, he veen went as far as showing videos of how MacRumors is a Apple site for hype, they banned his chance of posting his video which showed the DUET opened with parts used for iSight cameras!
yeah i went to 3 forums and noticed people arguing over the specs of this thing, funny how some people slam the person asking the obvious question, and that is why where the specs disclosed from the public by Apogee!
I think it's funny how big electronic music seems to be in Russia after watching a couple of these videos.
